beer, camping and running
My little family joined Lori’s parents, brother’s and significant others on a camping trip this weekend. Two days of campfires, GREAT campfire food, sleeping in a tent and fun with family. Very nice.
I managed a one hour run around the lake on Saturday afternoon. It was very tough going. The reason it was tough was the only liquids I drank for the 24 hours prior to running were beer and coffee…and some Gibsons Whiskey in my coffee. Definitely not an advisable hydration strategy! The run was also tough cuz I’ve been fighting a cold since Thursday and it was at it’s worst Saturday. The cold is getting better now.
It was a great way to end a rest week that followed last Sunday’s 1/2 marathon. But the rest is over and tomorrow it’s back to serious training. Why? See the post previous to this one for the answer.
Only bad part about being away is I missed the men’s Olympic marathon and an Italian won it!
